Description vlg 2014-03-17 13:41:02 UTC 
In libxml2-2.9.0\threads.c we have a function

xmlOnceInit that calls globalkey = TlsAlloc(); if !defined(HAVE_COMPILER_TLS)

and

xmlCleanupThreads that calls TlsFree(globalkey); if defined(HAVE_WIN32_THREADS) && !defined(HAVE_COMPILER_TLS) && (!defined(LIBXML_STATIC) || defined(LIBXML_STATIC_FOR_DLL))

What is the purpose of the (!defined(LIBXML_STATIC) || defined(LIBXML_STATIC_FOR_DLL)) part ?

I am using libxml2 as a static lib (LIBXML_STATIC defined ) and (of course) globalkey is allocated and never released.
Comment 1 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 13:21:55 UTC 
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libxml2/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
